To this of you that refuse to capitalize, a brief lesson:

Capitalization is the difference between "helping your uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse".




Thank you.

but so is punctuation:

the difference between "helping your uncle jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack-off a horse".

and i usually prefer punctuation, at least, online. sorry if it's a pain. :)

Punctuation is the difference between "Let's eat, Grandmother" and "Let's eat Grandmother."
